EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Amor Psyche Psyche lie chaise longue child Voluptas" transports us to a mythical landscape where love and beauty intertwine. The scene depicts the timeless tale of Cupid and Psyche, as they recline on a luxurious chaise longue with their child, Voluptas. Hovering above them is a winged figure, holding laurel wreaths symbolizing victory and honor. On the right side of the image, Ceres pours water onto Amor's hand, signifying purification and renewal. His hand rests upon a scale carried by Juno, representing justice and balance. In the background, we see a group of satyrs offering a goat as an offering to a statue of the gods. This hints at the divine nature of Cupid and Psyche's love story. The foreground is adorned with an endearing sight—a dog lying peacefully nearby—an emblematic representation of loyalty and fidelity. Created in 1574 by Giorgio Ghisi through paper engraving techniques, this artwork beautifully captures the essence of love's power over time. It showcases intricate details that bring life to this mythological narrative while evoking emotions within its viewers. The Liszt Collection presents this remarkable piece for our appreciation without any commercial intentions but rather as an opportunity to delve into classical mythology through artistry.
